The “Leopard” model was developed by V.S. Maslennikov and produced since 2004. The knife was developed by demand of hunters. They want to have a “flat-grind 12 cm slightly drop-point blade at thick easily curved handle that is the ideal one for cutting meat and vegetables”.
The hunters liked the knife very much, particularly because in Russia there are no else hunting knife with that type of blade.
Note: because the blade to the cutting edge grinded up to 0.1-0.2 mm only, the knife should not be used as a chopper, a hack or a tin-opener.
